Publisher's Description:

Macy, Madonna, Steve Martin, Al Pacino, Gwyneth Paltrow, Sean Penn, River Phoenix, Natalie Portman, Julia Roberts, Meg Ryan, Winona Ryder, Martin Scorsese, Uma Thurman, and Robin Williams.
Always black and white, naturally lit, and stripped of make-up and costumes, French photographer Brigitte Lacombe's iconic celebrity portraits reveal the generation of film and theater stars that has emerged since the 70s. See Spielberg looking boyish; Kevin Kline embarassed and self-conscious; Leonardo di Caprio watching hawkishly; John Malkovich staring; Diane Keaton collapsed in laughter. This exquisitely produced oversize volume is a retrospective of images that gorgeously conveys Lacombe's deep love for the performing arts and the people involved in it. |
